FRANKLIN COUNTY.

Duvall and Scott are making a
vigorous canvass. 1t is commonly
reported here that Scott once
voted for a Black Republican.
l can't believe it. | don't believe
in the doctrine Of falling from
grace. l believe if a man has
ever been soundly converted by
the spirit of the great Democratic
party, it is impossible for him to
apostatise, at least it looks that
way. Duvall wants the glass
blowers to make larger bottles.
Zeke is acquainted with some peo-
pie who would be better off if
there had never been any bottles
or anything to put in bottles.
Can you tell me what has be-
come of the gas well? If all the
citizens of Frankfort had as much
energy as Mr.. E. P. Bryan,
Frankfort would boom.
Will the railroad be built?
Franklin county would do we'll to
COLOMBO and send to Mexico some
of the voters for being opposed to
railroad tax. When the country
people want pixies made they ap-
peal to the people of Frankfort
who respond to their appeals lib
orally. Now that Frankfort wants
a railroad the same poor fellows
who begged money for pixies re-
fuse their aid. Vote the tax.
Build the railroad. Stand up and
help E. P. Bryan with his boring
for gas. The Capitol will be per-
manently located, money appro-
priated for a new State House.

ABUSES THE LEGISLATURE OF
KENTUCKY AND GOV. KNOTT, &C.
NY Daring Mephe7c:
I went to your city for the pur-
pose of hearing Mr.. Fountain T..
Reynard make speech on pro-
hibition. / was well pleased with
him, until he began abusing us
Democrats. He praised the party
for passing the Cow Bill, and
abused the best Governor Ken
lucky ever had, with perhaps
fifteen or twenty exceptions, for
vetoing said Cow Bill. The man
that strikes Knott insults Zeke.
He charged the Democrat party
with taking more care Of short
horn calves, than they did Of the
citizens of Kentucky, which may
be true, when there is no election
on hand. I'm thoroughly con-
WINGED that Buckner, Beck, Die
tate & Company's love can't be
surpassed, from now until the
August election. The Generals
tender love for his countrymen
induced him to surrender Fort
Donelson. I'm afraid that love
will induce him to do the same
thing with Bradley. I hope not.
Mr.. Fox is pleasant speaker,
but l don't think he ought
to be elected. Doubtless, my
dear nephew. you are anxious to
hear your uncle's reasons for
thinking that Mr.. Fox ought not
to be elected. / will be plain
with you, my dear boy, and tell
you. The stillhouses and bar
rooms are the only means by which
the Democrats can hold the State.
Whisky has been the only cause
of our success in the State.
For the last twenty years still
houses and bar-rooms redeemed
the State from Black Republican
rule and filled the State Treasury
with SO much money that it puts
my old friend Dictate to so much
ouble having vaults made. I'm
afraid his health will be impaired.
He ought to have an assistant
in his arduous duties. This is
simply suggestion, from personal
considerations for Mr.. Tate.
Gen. Buckner is not afraid to
meet Mr.. Bradley. His business
is pressing him, and, in addition
to this, the Democratic Central
Committee will not allow Gen.
Buckner to meet Bradley on ac-
count of the Generals health.
Brght's Disease of the Kidneys is
dangerous. He (Buckner) is SO
kind to Mr.. Bradley in telling
him to go ahead and make his
own appointments. I'm willing
to admit that thing of the Central
Committee grooming their candi
date is something new, but l
affirm again that Buckner is not
afraid of Bradley.

ries many cases Of emotional
disturbances and insanity were re,
garded as metamorphosis. through
the malign influence Of the devil, into
some lower animal form. The modern
belief in hydrophobia he looked upon
through his eyeglasses, as an evolu
ton OF the werewolf belief, based
mainly upon fear and dread. He ar,
gued against hydrophobia as specific
disease, because it did not follow the
laws which his education had
taught him were followed by
other infectious diseases. Further
more, he said that he and DIR
Spitzka could produce all the symp-
toms of paralytic and dumb rabies by
injecting under the dura mater of a
dog or rabbit. according to Pasteur's
method, healthy nervous tissue. He
did not believe Pasteur to have es-
tablished his position, because he had
several times in his investigations
altered to some extent his convie-
tions-a fact which considering that he
is penetrating an entirely new field
of investigation, has not appeared so
wonderful to the meagerly informed
scientists across the water as it does
to DR.. Brill. He declared that there
was pima facie evidence that the re-
port Of the eminent gentlemen COM
prising the British parliamentary COM
mittee was based upon the expert

tary, Mr.. Horsely. 81 regard

Ghosts, due to the effect of strong

basis all the phenomena which char
acterize it can be explained" He
gave number of figures showing, he
said, that quite as many people in
proportion had gotten we'll from rab-
hies who had not been treated by
Pasteur as those who had. Having
thus knocked M. Pasteur into a
cooked hat, the young gentleman sat
down.
A number of venerable doctors dis
cussed the matter, their tendency be-
ing to help poor Pasteur a little. 1t
was inferred by some of them that if
it were psychosis, that fact would
probably have been discovered in
France, and would not have waited
for DR.. Brill to unearth it,
since the effect of the mind
ON the body has probably
been studied further in France than
anywhere else. Nevertheless, DIR.

oner, DIR. Spitzka, said much more
